Anti-Gun Teens claim the NRA is “basically” threatening them

I want to thank the anti-gun Parkland kids personally for encouraging me to renew my lapsed membership to the National Rifle Association.

My new membership card came in the mail yesterday and I owe it all to you guys.

So thanks. Thanks for lighting a fire under my ass and getting me to do what I should have done in 2014 when my NRA membership expired.

Personally, I hope these Parkland kids never shut up.

It is not uncommon for people who love liberty to become complacent and soft. And getting a daily reminder that there are people in this country – heavily-funded people – who want to deprive us of our liberties is just the kick in the butt we needed.

Now, call me crazy, but to me a threat is “Nice future career on CNN you got there, Wesley. Be a shame if something happened to it.”

And that, my friends, is why they use the word “basically.”

Their effort to turn the NRA into a monstrous boogeyman isn’t working.

Instead, hundreds of thousands of Americans are joining the NRA.

So these idiots play the Victim card and pretend that the NRA is “basically threatening them” when in fact they aren’t being threatened at all.

Which, when you stop and think about it, is hardly surprising.

As ignorant as these kids might be, they certainly are savvy about this hyper-media age.

They know the shortcut to fame is to portray yourself as a Victim.

Which is exactly why they billed themselves as “survivors” of a school shooting.

When in fact what they are, to borrow a term, is “basically” survivors – in the sense that they were nowhere near the shooting, but that truth isn’t dramatic enough.

Playing the Victim is the way lazy, talentless people gain celebrity. And what kid doesn’t want to be a celebrity?

So, no. It isn’t surprising to me that now they want to pretend that the meanie-meanie-jelly-beanie NRA is out to get them.

They’ve had a taste of celebrity and they will do anything to keep that gravy train running.

Dianny,
Here’s a photoshop idea for you. Paste Wesley’s face on the bodies of the Charlottesville Tiki torch parade crowd. If you could add a pic of him in his white shirt/arm band attire as leader of the gang, even better.
Love your site,
Steve

Dianny, just like you, in the wake of Parkland when the pitchforks came out against the NRA and for gun control, I re-upped my lapsed membership.

What part of “shall not be infringed,” don’t these morons understand? I understand that they’re not taught much in public school these days, that “shall” is an old-fashioned word, and that “infringed” with nine letters is bigger than they’re used to, but it’s really not that complicated.
